Billionaire James Crown, a JP Morgan board member previously on Barack Obama’s Intelligence Advisory, died tragically in a car crash on Sunday in Colorado. This is a huge loss for the business world, as James Crown was a vital part of JPMorgan Chase’s company and our daily lives. Crown was also known for his longtime friendship with former President Barrack Obama, serving as the co-finance chair for Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign. Furthermore, Obama appointed Crown to his Intelligence Advisory Board in 2014 during his second term, inviting one of his close personal friends to work with him. This can only raise questions about how politics and personal connections are mixed.

According to The Hill, Crown, 70, died Sunday after his vehicle hit a barrier on a racetrack at Aspen Motorsports Park in Woody Creek, Colo., Sunday – which was also his birthday. It’s unclear whether this incident was an accident, but multiple blunt force traumas were evident in the autopsy, and the coroner ruled his death as an accident. Crown had served as a board member of JPMorgan’s since the early 1990s and was a board director at General Dynamics. He was also the chairman of the Aspen Institute, and he lived in Chicago, where he was the managing partner of Aspen Skiing Co. based in Colorado.
The family of James Crown has requested that their privacy is respected during this difficult time as they mourn the loss of a loved one. However, the news of Crown’s death comes at a difficult time as JP Morgan agreed to pay $290 million in a settlement to Epstein’s victims for doing business with the convicted pedophile Jeffery Epstein. It looks as if JP Morgan has had some controversy around their involvement with Epstein, as emails have surfaced revealing a ‘profound friendship’ between Epstein and Jes Staley, who worked at JPMorgan until 2013. Unfortunately, the bank serviced approximately 55 Epstein-related accounts worth hundreds of millions of dollars. It looks like JP Morgan which is behind the pedophile scandal is now also related to the tragedy of James Crown’s death.
